Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar would reportedly only be interested in joining Manchester United this summer.

Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar would reportedly only be interested in leaving the French champions this summer to make the move to Manchester United.

The Brazil international's future is currently the subject of much speculation, with Chelsea and Newcastle United among the clubs to be linked with his services during the upcoming market.

Man United are also thought to be keeping a close eye on the attacker's situation in Paris, and according to FootMercato, a move to the 20-time English champions appeals to the 31-year-old.

The report claims that Neymar can only see himself at PSG or Man United next term despite claims that Chelsea and Newcastle could offer him the chance to move to the Premier League.

Last month, it was suggested that Man United were in advanced talks with the South American over a move to Old Trafford during this summer's transfer window.

Red Devils midfielder Casemiro has allegedly been in discussions with his international teammate in a bid to convince him to move to the club over the next few months.

Neymar has scored 18 goals and registered 17 assists in 29 appearances for PSG this season, but he has been on the sidelines since February due to an ankle injury which required surgery.

The attacker made the move to the French capital from Barcelona in August 2017, and he has represented his current side on 173 occasions, scoring 118 goals and registering 77 assists.

Neymar has another two years left to run on his contract, with the option of a further 12 months, but his long-term future in Paris continues to be called into question.

PSG will be losing Lionel Messi on a free transfer this summer, but Kylian Mbappe will stay, at least for another year, while Marco Asensio is expected to arrive from Real Madrid.

Man United, meanwhile, are preparing to make at least one forward addition in the upcoming market, having not replaced Cristiano Ronaldo following his exit at the end of 2022.

Anthony Martial could also depart depending on his recovery from a hamstring issue, while Wout Weghorst is set to return to Burnley following a loan spell.

Should Neymar arrive at Old Trafford, he is likely to be used on the left, which would push Marcus Rashford through the middle.

Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane remains a target for the Red Devils, but it is seen as unlikely that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy will allow the England captain to move to a domestic rival.
